Shocking to wish my longtime friend Happy Birthday, only to learn it is a heavenly one this year. Thank you for your awesome friendship especially picking up my family at your FL airport in the middle of the nite due to my Dads heart attack….my forever friend now sharing your personality with all our friends in heaven!
So sad to hear this. I have many fond memories of our friendship. Many lives drift apart but remain in our hearts. Rest well friend.
We talked every day as newlyweds but slowly drifted apart after you moved to Florida. Rest easy, dear friend.
The Class of 1963 of the Waynesboro Area Senior High School sends condolences to the family of our classmate Cheryl, who is fondly remembered by many.
May you rest in peace. I will always remember our fun times growing up at BlueRidgeSummit. I will keep in touch with Michael. You raised a great son.
